Olivia is in Surgery Right Now

5:30am: Woke up, showered, put Olivia in our bed to start waking up.

6:00am: Drove to hospital for early check-in.

8:30am: Gave Olivia Valium at 8:10. Loopy within ten minutes. Just dropped her off in the long hallway to her operating room. Anesthesiologists were very nice and reassuring.

They'll give us updates every 45 minutes.

Note to all parents: if a hospital ever tries to place an IV before your child has been put under, go somewhere else. There's no need for that. Children's Mercy does it correctly. They're great.
